What we deliver

Precision-crafted.
Built to last.

We design, build and install bespoke joinery that has to look right and survive years of heavy use, all of it out of our own Lancashire workshop. Our joinery goes into corporate reimaging programmes across the country and into every commercial interior fit out we deliver.

Educational furniture, commercial counters, staircases, feature bars, bespoke doors. High footfall, strict safety compliance and demanding aesthetic briefs are what our joiners have been solving since 1986.

The workshop runs modern machinery alongside traditional skills, including a Biesse Rover Edge Go edgebander for clean, consistent panel edges. Because we make it ourselves, we control the quality, the lead time and the detail.

02 / Process

How we work

Five stages,
one team

01

Consultation and scope

Site assessments and detailed conversations give us a clear picture of how the space is actually used before anything is drawn.

02

Design and technical drawings

Full technical drawings for approval before a single board is cut, so the finished piece matches what you pictured.

03

In-house manufacture

Everything made in our own facility, from feature walls and bar fittings through to furniture and architectural millwork.

04

Delivery and installation

Our fitters work around live trading where they have to, and coordinate closely with the other trades on site.

05

Inspected to BS 1186-3

Joinery is checked against the relevant standards before handover, for immediate use and long-term performance.

What sets
us apart

01

Our own workshop

Nothing is bought in and badged. The joinery on your site was made by our team in Lancashire.

02

Built for heavy use

Pieces are specified for how they will be used, in hotels, restaurants, clinics and gyms that never really close.

03

Installed by the makers

The people who made it fit it, so problems are solved on site rather than passed back down a supply chain.

Solid timber, veneers, laminates and solid surfaces such as Corian, specified for how the piece will be used and how it has to look in five years.

Explore Corian fabrication

Yes. We produce our own technical drawings from your designer's intent and get them approved before anything is cut.

Send us your drawings

Joinery is inspected against the relevant standards, including BS 1186-3, before it leaves the workshop and again at handover.

Yes. Because pieces arrive finished and ready to fit, installation is quicker and quieter, and we work around trading hours where needed.
